I just wanted to mention that the probability of that TFI module being bad is slim. I've been driving these SN95's since 2003 and have owned about 5 of them, and in all the ignition problems I've had the TFI module was never the culprit. A lot of prior Fox owners will point to the TFI module because Fox's will eat through them like candy. When I drove one, I'd always keep a spare in the glove box with the correct tools to change it out roadside. Since Ford got smart and mounted the TFI remotely, away from heat in our cars, they hardly ever go bad.
You are on the right track with the dizzy. Even if a new dizzy doesn't solve your issues, you can rest assured that you won't get stranded by the old dizzy failing(if it hasn't already). And please tell me you didn't purchase a rebuilt dizzy. I have gotten a few in my time that actually used the OLD pickup sensor! The very part that fails!!!! You can request a brand new one from Richporter and it's the same price, doesn't even have a core charge!
That will totally kick ass! I've wanted to do it for a long time! Find out if you can tether your cell phone....then you have mobile internet!
I have a driving video of it actually.. lolAre we ever going to get to see this car start and drive? You have a bunch of nice toys installed but what about the car itself, is it done yet?
FYI this particular model computer has major issues with the capacitors.The capacitors are defective themselves. You can look it up on google its a know dell issue I work for a school district and we have had to replace at least over 50 computers of this model motherboards due to boldging capacitors you can replace the capacitors when they start to go the computer itself will start to exibit weird behavior like shutting itself off or an amber light when trying to turn it on
yep... my hand is all cut up from tearing the case apart last night and replacing the 3 capacitors that were leaking, everything went well and none of the other capacitors seemed to be swollen or any visible signs of problems
and honestly, I bought it "as-is" for $30 and assumed it had bad capacitors and wouldn't work, but there doesn't seem to be any problem with it whatsoever. The p4 it came with was the fastest processor for this model which is nice too (3.4ghz with hyperthreading) and it's the 84TDP watt one instead of the 115w, supposedly they idle @ 20w and it shouldn't really need all of the processor very often I'd imagine, other than on bootup which is fine with me. Bootup time from power to desktop was about 15 seconds, and I think I can improve that time also. Not sure if hibernate is even faster lol. Using a 750gb 7200 rpm drive, would like an SSD drive but can't really compete with a 750gb in that manner... and the 2nd drive would have to be external as there's not enough room on the inside of this case, and no more expansion methods other than USB.
Sorry for babbling, but I think you all know I do the computer thing
Very impressed we replaced some on ours but it came to the point that it wasnt worth it in some cases like 12 caps being blown its time consuming .If you replaced the main ones you should have a good machine for a while since the caps where the main issue the machine is a great machine when it works.
Usually all that stuff bolts on anyway (except the mufflers).
